You being offended by stuff offends me. I'm triggered right now by you trying to suggest hard censorship. I believe you should *** you ***** **** of **** ****.
Nice.
Thanks for your hard work Jay.
Great moderator choices...
Peace.
Oh wow, if only i knew about the infinitely watering feature.
This would have been great when i made everything to make a deep well, but had to drain a pond... then a well. Normally not a huge issue, but on mobile it was a little draining trying to create a deep well just so i could fill a bucket with one click.
I ended up making a bunch of buckets.....
I think you can dig them up and turn them to firewood if im not mistaken. Can be useful to make spots to drop water and soil when berry farmer goes a little to crazy making a massive berry field..
Leaf and tinder.
Squash seeds not in a bowl and wheat (previously mentioned)
Rabbit bones and ribs.
Wow! Have we entered the midevil age!
Squire fetch me my carrot shield
Would be great if we did have some item we could hold to prevent being stabbed or shot. Not equipped.... That would just make murderers invincible.
Jason! We the people demand a solution.
In real life when we find a criminal we can imprison them and prevent them from....reincarnating and just being a D*** again.
We want shackles! (*Crowd cheers*) Yeah! we will have those that are evil enslave by the good.... (Angry mob member 7 starts to question your idea) we want to lock up criminals, keep them fed and prevent them from starting a new life of terror until they die of old age !!(or more likely we forgot to feed them)
This totally won't be used for child slave labor camps...
Do you get to the log in page? Or is it before you sign in?
+1 for the safety of mute children and slow learner's everywhere.
Also cursed children should stay cursed until they survive till 60 or die 60 times. Screw em ?
A small idea..
But since we know this will be used mostly to write racist comments (just being honest here), how about we have a limited list of content that can be written out.... Kinda like the dark souls communication.
It would still allow trolls to have fun by putting
"Danger, man but stop" and prevent things like "h**** ***** ** f*** *** *** *****"
What about those who rp as a mute! Curse system should have some visual indicator to help our poor mute children!
Bah, I say let the sponges be sponges. Maybe they learn a new trick or two.
Love players who are rp, but please try not to be offensive. Some of those sponges are 8yo.
One thing ya gotta keep in mind is some people are rp as murderers, trying to kill you for any reason including false accusations, and some as town protectors.
I say play but don't get worked up over anything. After all it's only you who can choose to be upset or happy.
Thanks Gus,
feel free to delete this thread and ill pop it in at the right location.
Ship griefers off to a grief-only server. One where all the doors have rose bushes in front, all trees are cut, all bears are free and where they can finally feel at home.

I agree with MultiLife.
I dont think this is a good game to let your children play. Its like letting your kid join VR chat, random video chat or play gta.
The idea of a friendly server is a good idea.... but i like the idea of trolls being banished to a troll only server. But of course this would require moderators....
Most games provide an endless amount of amazing impossible moments, wow'ing the player. Human's tend to remember the bad moments over the normal.
You remember the times you got stuck in traffic for hours and think "wow driving to work sucks", but you never think "I got in a plane or car and traveled what would take a lifetime with no complications."
But yes, ohol has made me question humanity. I have had experiences that left me wondering why do i play this game or wondering what sort of sick person chooses to roleplay as well... im sure you have seen your share.
Somethings have actually left a mark on me, and left me thinking about them for days. These were mostly early on and the longer you play the more it becomes normal... unfortunately this game does desensitizes you, and i dont think this is the intent. Its no worse then gta, but ive been playing on mobile more often as there is less people playing and you can leave a knife or bow in the center of town and not get killed (mostly).
I love threatening kids with a well. BAD KIDS GO IN HERE!
Id rather be a girl in a small town, or a boy in a large town working on time sensitive tasks (smith, sheep, gatherer) and im glad we have no say in which sex we are born into.
I kinda wish being born as a sex would be a time restriction. Like for this hour you will always be a boy. No runnin off and killing yourself to be reborn as your preferred sex.
Lol love the quote to go along with that story
That's a good idea Ribbz,
Could be a special trait of just the medic apron and not the default one.
I spent an entire life running towards a bell and died of old age. This was before the update to distance bell towers sound traveled.
I knew i was still far away because running north or west did not change the direction of the compass. But I'm wondering how you figured out you were over half way?
For awhile i would use the longest possible names...
Boy: Christopherjame
Girl: Sarahelizabeth
Now with the curse system i tend to use shorter names, you know... just in case.
Dj
Max (especially if I'm Eve as your name would be "Max Powers")
Jem
Just a few small tricks i wish i knew early on, I'm by no means a master at this game and im hoping to steal your tips by offering mine for free.
Dirt:
- You can carry 1 extra dirt in your backpack, you need to unequip it to load it with dirt so 2 dirt loads with a basket and 5 with a cart.
- Dirt piles can be revived with a shovel 1 time. Worms do nothing(yet) leave them in the dirt.
- Each load of dirt gives 3 piles. 2 piles tilled make one row. Using one dirt and hoe'ing twice is ok in some situations, but hoe'ing 3 dirt is never a good move.
Combined items:
- You can pickup items that would normally result in breaking the items apart by swapping items with them. If you have a bowl of 3 dried beans you can pick it up by dropping anything onto it and you will be holding the bowl with three beans in it.
- You can combine the tongues with an ore or uncooked bowl and then swap it with another item by the forge. You will then only need to pick up the tongues and it will already have the ore or bowl ready to go.
Forge:
- When you are making coal you have to opportunity to make a few new bowls, plates or a clay nozzle.
- Same goes for making bowls or plates, pop some adobe on at the end and get a batch of coal at the same time (See pein's great tip about the firebrand as a timer).
- Pop in unforged sealed crucibles first, then do a few ore's then open your crucibles and pop in the Steel Ingot and get hammering.
ohol form:
- Super nice and friendly community despite the greefers online, dont be shy to post.
Mobile:
- Zoom level: this option should be used when forging, it allows you to get a little closer and have less chance of click dragging on the wrong section of the tile.
Most important nonrenewable resource in life? Your time.
I've been thinking about this a lot...
I have to say what I think this game needs is more recipes.
Maybe the stackable item solution is to instead to build items to stack items in. Make cabinets that need to go in building that allow for stacking bowls and plates. Make cold storage pits for food. Love the idea of seed pouches.
I think having multiple ways of getting the same task done and multiple uses for the same item make the skill of the game more of what you know and knowing what can be done with what lies in front of you.
It's not fail proof and I don't do this unless I find myself stuck without water and green grass for the first few years, but what I look for is cactus fruit and eggs on ponds.
If you see them, someone has run by, if you don't your probably running off into new uncharted territory.
Then once your on a trail look for garbage (sticks, chipped rockers and flint), and stick to green area's and water areas missing reeds
Mines: Not a fan that you just pick up ore from outside the mine, would be great to gear a kid up and send him down with a torch, some cloths, a backpack and a pickaxe (maybe a knife if the cave can have beasts.... like alligators....).
Eggs: Too many of them, would be great if all pies gave 1 or 2 less food, but if dough had an egg added to it, it would bump the pie up by 3 or 4.
Ponds: I think making water source would be amazing for the game, and if existing sources dried up automatically were created with time... this ties into
Weather: There is none. Would be awesome if it rained. Dig a pit, and when it rains if it could collect water it would be great! Also a use for snow drifts..
Dead Bodies: These things can just lie around right next to your pie or you pie could even be on the same square as a dead body for years and then you can just eat it... YUCK! These bodies need to be handled, and the new Grave digger would be a highly respected position... ok well at least as more bodies start piling up, the chance for disease increase.
Drinks: We only have water and you cant drink it. Would be great to be able to make wine, beer, juice or anything that might reduce your hunger reduction rate, or maybe give a hunger bub, but can be used many times.
Just some idea's and im not saying they are good.
On mobile there are no boys, its interesting....
I gotta say, only having girls has its benefits. Problem is, you cant really send a fertile girl out with a cart or a basket to gather supplies from distant areas without her having to leave her children to die or taking forever to come back.
Nice thing about being a boy is you don't get interrupted, time critical job's are easier to not mess up and you take up a little less food with no birth tax.
Still these jobs can just be saved for the older ladies (like gathering ore, rabbits, dyes and Skins)
